TAILORED SOLUTIONS FOR YOUR SECTOR

BUILDING SAFER BUSINESSES

We’re busy people, so wanted to make compliance simpler to manage and implement. Keeping current with due diligence checks is made easy by the Safety Cloud system, which streamlines audits, equipment assessments and staff training and informs us when an upcoming action is due. We like to look after our staff and customers and the support of the Southalls team helps us do this. Our family-friendly values and high quality service are something we work hard to maintain and it was clear that Southalls reflect similar values.

Gates Garden Centre

Southalls created a customised system for risk assessing and other general information which was simple, effective and covered a great variety of spaces and activities. We have continued our relationship with the company as a result and their practical and constructive approach has proved extremely useful.

Midlands Art Centre

The superb guidance from the consultants, not only helps us ensure a safe working environment for our staff and customers, but has supported us in avoiding claims and strongly assists us in maintaining our OHSAS 18001 registration. I am regularly approached by other companies offering H&S support but none can come close to the full package, knowledge and support that we receive from Southalls. I wholeheartedly recommend Southalls to any company that has an interest in their Health and Safety activities (and that should be every company!)

James Lister & Sons Limited

We have found that John gives us sound and practical advice - not the one-size-fits-all recommendations that we might have expected, but useful help tailored to our business needs.

Southalls safety management system was adapted to our business needs and aided our company growth in the last 3 years. It is simple and effective and is backed by qualified consultants.

Hollywood Monster

Teaching and support staff in schools require training and development in line with other professional sectors, however releasing staff for training is an immense problem. Southall provide effective H&S e-learning training at this level on their cloud facility, which has had a huge impact at Alderbrook School. All of our H&S procedures, policies, risk assessments, meeting minutes and training are recorded on the cloud which staff can access using a simple log on. H&S auditing, detailed reporting and support are just a few of the important services offered by the Southall team and they continue to develop our cloud, in response to our regular consultations and provide excellent advice.

Following a recent school inspection….. “ They were very impressed with the safety cloud. Had not seen a system like it. We got outstanding for Health and Safety and safeguarding. Thank you! "

Focus School, Northampton

We have found both their safety cloud software and consultancy support outstanding. The support has improved confidence and led to a more consistent approach to health and safety management in our 32 schools. This is a must for all organisations and one we now wouldn’t be without.

Southalls’ reputation for quality and knowledge cemented our decision to work with them. We are a busy, forward-thinking company and finding ways to streamline business processes is always valuable to us. It’s reassuring to know that we have access to instant, expert advice if we need it, with the consultancy support allowing us to get on with other parts of the business.

All I can say is a big THANK YOU! Been a great help and would recommend you to anybody that ever needs any H&S help.

Express Ways Ltd

At Fakenham, we care strongly about staff and customer safety. Proper team training is a big part of this and Safety Cloud allows us to provide the right course at the right time, for every employee. We can easily view individuals’ completed modules and receive automatic notifications when refreshers are due. Our consultant’s support is also very beneficial. He understands our business objectives and his background as an enforcement officer gives us practical insight into what an inspector might look for.
